Answer 1

Per my experience, the simple way to copy some files and directories to Azure Blob Storage is to use AzCopy Here are my steps to realize for copying resources under D:\home\site of Azure WebApp to Blob Storage.

1. First, I installed AzCopy v8 on my local Windows machine, and upload the AzCopy directory under C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Azure into Kudo Console path D:\home\site, as the figure below.

2. Use command to copy file

azcopy /Source:D:\home\site\wwwroot /Dest:"your container url" /Destkey:"your storage key" /s

if ($container) {
        $filesToUpload = Get-ChildItem $sourceFileRootDirectory -Recurse

        foreach ($x in $filesToUpload) {
            $targetPath = ($x.fullname.Substring($sourceFileRootDirectory.Length + 1)).Replace("\", "/")

            Write-Verbose "Uploading $("\" + $x.fullname.Substring($sourceFileRootDirectory.Length + 1)) to $($container.CloudBlobContainer.Uri.AbsoluteUri + "/" + $targetPath)"
            Set-AzureStorageBlobContent -File $x.fullname -Container $container.Name -Blob $targetPath -Context $account.Context -Force | Out-Null
        }
    }
